Macallan 18 year old sherry oak, vintage 1987

Nose: Oh baby. This reminds me why I love the Macallan sherry expressions.All the sherry goodness in the world is here. Thick, complex, big : Starts with loads of tobacco, inner of a pipe box , and dried fruit (prunes, dates, all in thick liquor). Orange Peel , Dark chocolate and traces of coffee.

Palate: Starting with coffee beans, Earl Grey , dried fruit and a few some oaky notes. Thick, comforting, sweet, bitter. A microcosm of pleasures.

Finish : Long, dry,double espresso, crushed coffee beans, and plums .

In short : This is what i love. This is a true Macallan. forget the 'Fine Oak' , this is the real McCoy. Macallan knows sherry, they know how to treat it, they know how to make one moan with joy when sipping it.

I love this one!

A great whisky. Definitely on my top 10 sherry drams ever!

Happy holidays!
